Answer :
Final answer:
The statement is false. The Boston Tea Party was an act of protest conducted by the colonists, disguised as Native Americans, against the Tea Act by the British Parliament, not an act committed by the Native Americans themselves.
Explanation:
The statement that colonists were angry about what the Indians had done at the Boston Tea Party is false. The Boston Tea Party was actually an act of protest by the colonists themselves, particularly by a group called the Sons of Liberty. Disguised as Native Americans to mask their identities, these colonists boarded British ships in Boston Harbor and dumped 342 chests of tea into the water on the night of December 16, 1773.
This act of defiance was in response to the Tea Act, which the colonists saw as another example of taxation without representation. It was not an action taken by Native Americans, but rather a strategic choice by the colonists to use the guise of Indians as a form of protest.
